Can we have the PO system work off of the project numbering system so we can tell which project the PO's belong to?
For example.... we have our Projects being numbered as "ZCP 2006" (Zetta Comm Project: prefix) then the number is the project number itself. My question would be, could we add the PO number for the project so it read ZCP 2006 001? Then as orders are created we know which project ZCP 2006-009 belongs too. We know that it is the 9th PO on project 2006.
We are trying to figure out a more simple way to organize and stay on top of our ordering system and save a ton of time with the figuring out which project these orders belong just by a glance at the shipping label.
This matters both in the office in organizing the PO's and when the shipments come in.
Currently, it just assigns random numbers starting at a number that is input into the box and when the product comes in, someone has to track this down because there is no rhyme or reason to the numbering system.
